I met Damon at a wedding last night, and not only was he inexhaustably good-looking in person, he was incredibly professional when I asked him about no longer working at Foxxulagrad2002http://Comment on WVUE-TV replaces two sportscasterstag:blog.nola.com,2015:/living//1649.1162422007-06-17T00:21:54Z2007-06-17T00:21:54ZI don't blame Darrell Greene for leaving. He has that same funny humor, that Damon and Eric did, that made the morning show great to watch....compared to the bad forced humor ch. 4 & 6 try to pass off inlaredhttp://Comment on WVUE-TV replaces two sportscasterstag:blog.nola.com,2015:/living//1649.1137622007-06-15T22:22:34Z2007-06-15T22:22:34ZJust to illustrate how BAD things are at Fox 8, Darrell Greene is now leaving. Yeah, he's going to a better job, but people are jumping ship at Fox 8 at a scary pace.

I like Eric alot and think that he has brought something special to FOX over the years.
